Resumen

Reed, a young man that had spent his entire life in the slums wished for a miracle. He dreamt that one day he'd escape the ghetto he had been born in and travel across the world. He longed to embark on an adventure and truly begin living a real life.

Alas, it was not meant to be. The stars had other plans in mind for the young man.

On the night of his sixteenth birthday, he had his life flipped upside down. Caught in the midst of a confrontation between two rival gangs, Reed suffered a fatal injury.

As he laid on the street, Reed couldn't help but laugh at how unfair his life had been from beginning to end.

Born poor? Sure. No parents? Okay. No opportunities in life? Fine. But his own miserable life, too?

"What more can I be deprived of?" Reed muttered as he struggled to keep his eyes open.

A soft voice chuckled and said, "Much, much more, boy. But you'll soon have the opportunity to have all your wishes fulfilled."

"...If you can earn the right to obtain them."

---------------------------------------------

Let this message serve as a FINAL warning to those who have come in expecting the 'usual' type of story on this site.

This is 'NOT' a wish-fulfillment based story.

Please do NOT come into this novel with the expectation that you will get some kind of fearless action hero. The MC is everything but that.

That he will be... this 'fearless, intrepid' person straight out of the FIRST chapter. A bold, charismatic hero with an unshakable resolve and iron will.

Get that irritating preconception out of your head right now if you dare venture further into the story.

I KNOW that's what you're expecting because that's the common setup with the stories on this site.

I am writing a story about personal growth, above all else. Be forewarned about that. I'm serious.

That means that the character has to start from the bottom and work his way UP. Not in only in terms of power, but also in the strength of his character -- as in, maturing INTO someone who will become a hero.

Not over the course of a SINGLE chapter like some stories do. Not in SINGLE arc, or volume, but over the course of the ENTIRE STORY.

My main character starts off as COWARDLY, INDECISIVE, and WHINY. He is by NO measure a heroic person, or EVEN a whole person. He is weak-willed and flawed because that is how I HAVE WRITTEN him to be, for good reason.

Now, it's your right to DISLIKE this decision I've made and not read the novel because of that. Absolutely.

If you want an OP power-fantasy, then go find it elsewhere on the site. You do you. Don't let me or anyone stop you from reading what you want.

But if you read my novel for what it is and then give it a poor review, criticizing it for having a "flawed, detestable, and pathetic main character," I WILL delete your goddamned review on that point alone.

tl;dr: My main character isn't fucking He-Man and the Terminator's baby. He's a human being with all the ugly, pathetic parts you don't like seeing in your OP Reincarnation novels.

-------------------------------------------------

Any comment or review you'd leave for the novel is worth more than gold to me. Have a good one.

    Hey, how are you all doing? If you stumbled onto my novel out of pure chance and gave it a shot, I want to let you know I appreciate the gesture. Whether or not you liked it, I'm still glad that you gave it a chance. My novel's a bit unorthodox by Webnovel standards, so it doesn't pull in the largest crowds, per se. But I'm still having loads of fun writing it, nevertheless. For those of you who did find it interesting, please stick around and watch the story unfold with me. At the very least, I promise it'll be a unique tale, haha. Hope to keep seeing my silent lurkers read on for many days to come; love you, shy boys!

    I’m really disappointed, the author stressed so much how his protagonist would start from the bottom and would have to strive to improve in both and personality, but he is still the same the same OP MC. Even if he starts from the bottom he doesn’t struggle at all, he is the most talented of all that given time will easily surpass everyone else. The author says that he is weak-willed and indecisive, but he never acts like that, even if force by the circumstances still he never acts indecisive, he immediately works his ass of. The author says one thing, but the MC’s actions say another one. I’ve read only the first part before quitting because it was so disappointing, the author rants about something and then does the same thing. The MC never fails, easily obtain everything and his psychological development is poorly executed, he changes from weak-willed to iron-willed way to easily. And even if there is some whining in his thoughts, it is never reflected in his actions.

    Hi! I should say the way you write is so smooth and decent, it gave me chills when I read how you describe the background of the world's. And the story build is really interesting. I got sucked in from when the will of world is introduced and when Reed goes in and you know what xD *spoiler* lol. This story is a gem for fantasy lovers and motivates other fantasy writers that are on here. Thank you for such a crafted story. And good luck for the future.

    Well, it is a good story for an use isekai I suppose but there doesn’t seem to be much of what has been promised. Quite the contrary the MC is cliche in every way of plot armor possible so far. The only thing might be that the MC doesn’t like the role he is pressured into but this is nothing special and has been done before. Another aspect is that the world building seems rather strange to me. You have kingdoms, cultivators and high technology like tablets and phones. This seems very strange and is likely to create contradictions down the line. Well I’ll be not giving up hope just yet to find what the author promised but I doubt I will find it here.

    While the synopsis sounded like it would lead to an interesting Claok and dagger style story, instead we get an Isekai. The quality of the writing form a techincal standpoint is better than most stories I have read here on Webnovel, but there are more than a handfull of tiems where the author suddenly switches narrating perspectives, has a few words repeated by what I assume to eb mistake or some tense mistakes. As for the story itself, whiel it starts of interestingly enough, it soon devolves into the same cliche ridden thing as most Isekai stories. Up to this point most characters felt very much one dimensional or proped up by tropes and cliches. The story developed at a decent, but rather slow pace, while the world as shown so far has little to nothign special to it compared to many other Isekais, but has neither anythign obviously wrong with it. All in all I got to say if you want a different flavor of the standard Isekai, this story is better than at elast 80% of what Webnovel has to offer you. If not, it probably isn't the story for you.

    The ending of the first chapter turned out to be luxurious. Curious learning, books that have always been associated with silence, peace, wisdom, and then suddenly methods of extreme degree of savagery in teaching books from under the stick. It is curious that from chapter to chapter, history begins to take on its own contours, it is becoming more and more fascinating and exciting. This is a brilliant work! You can’t stop reading one chapter after another. From the comments, in my subjective opinion, the first two chapters are somewhat drawn out, there is no activity to go on to read the third chapter, but if you get to it ... then easily, without even noticing the chapter numbers, the reader may look back and already be surprised find yourself reading chapter 10. The author of patience, new ideas. With interest

    Not exactly the genre I would usually go for, nonetheless, the plot doesn't disappoint. The author's writing skills are up to the level until this point!

    This type story is not worth reading because the mc is weak will and I hate those with that character the most because those characters fear the strong and bully the weak and they tend to betray their friends when put under pressure

    To be honest the premise of the novel sounds amazing and if the author would like to a similar sounding novel would be supreme magus bc it's got an mc with a dark past too. I like this novel with a real human being as mc I'm excited to see where this goes. Pre-novel report end😊

    There are very few novels that can make me say this but this novel is absolutely one of them. It is a MASTERPIECE. That's it, that is all I have to say. Actually this is the novel that compelled me to write up a the story for my novel. 10/10 - 100% of the time. No doubt about it.

    I like what you have written so far but even more is that you write for yourself, for the story and a personal conviction which turn into an original story. Gj keep it up. I am not giving you a full score because of some issues which started from personal opinion but i don't want to impose as you made yourself crystal clear about it in the description.

    I genuinely think that your novel is interesting. Although personally I found it too heavy, but it was also light at the same time. I found some words are philosophical so it's really meaningful. The story development is also pace very well. Thanks for introducing this novel to me!

    Okay I have read just the few chapters and let me say it is not dissapointing and it is actually Great. Contrary to what you would expect, it isnt one of those less detailed and very slow paced type of novels. Although it is slow paced its not "THAT" slow and you can actually feel the story progress as long as you give it time, it also contains more detail compared to the regular stories that have a fast pace which helps the story progress smoothly. So this is just my first part of review and I will change it later. See you guys again

    This is the most confusing and mindbreaking story I have ever read. I can say that the main character is well written, but there is not a lot of context to anything, where is this, what is happening, who are all these people, it's kind of all over the place and there is so much that is crammed into the story arcs, the writing will sometime make sense, but often it will tear away the semblance of understanding the reader is trying to find, I think that this is an interesting story, but it should be grounded in something, with a curse upon the land, characters that just appear without any description, it feels like there is no context built for the reader to connect to the story, and therefore one cannot imagine the world in a sense. Other than that I find it kinda fascinating, but I'm unable to read more than a few chapters at the time as it never stop giving me headaches😓. I'm .still going to continue reading, but I hope at some place in the future it will make more sense, I'm not looking for a overpowered mc or a happy ending or anything, I just want to understand all the small details that is happening in the story and that it will explain what is happening. I want a story with a different mc(which it has) i want a understandable world building (which haven't appeared yet), some sort of understanding of the interactions in the storytelling process. I just hope that I can watch the story grow into a whole piece instead of short cutting into different pieces of the story without producing a suitable decisive theme for a arc, so good luck to the author, hope this can explain what I feel about the novel and hopefully I will understand it in the future and maybe give a better rating. All g in the hood and I'll try my best. So this story better be worth the time I'm going to spend on it ❤🤔 see yall later🎉
